Get started with Baby Query
Baby Query is the custom implementation of the popular JavaScript library jQuery.
Quick start
Get started by including Baby Query’s production-ready CSS and JavaScript via CDN without the need for any build steps. See it in practice with this Baby Query CodePen demo.
- Create a new
index.html
file in your project root.
html
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<title>Bootstrap demo</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello, world!</h1>
</body>
</html>

A Brief Look
DOM Traversal and Manipulation
Get the <button>
element with the class continue
and change its HTML to Next Step...
javascript
$('button.continue').html('Next Step...')
Event Handling
Show the #banner-message
element that is hidden with display:none
in its CSS when any button in #button-container
is clicked.
javascript
var hiddenBox = $('#banner-message')
$('#button-container button').on('click', function (event) {
hiddenBox.text("button clicked")
})
